All ground transportation companies operating at PortMiami are required to have an active business permit. A business permit allows the holder to conduct business at PortMiami in accordance with rules and requirements of the Port Tariff, the Port Director and the Miami-Dade County Code. Companies are expected to comply with all applicable local, state and federal regulations.

In order to obtain a permit to provide pre-arranged ground transportation services at PortMiami, businesses must supply:

Permit Application

Proof of Insurance

All companies must provide a certificate of insurance, which names Miami-Dade County Risk Management and PortMiami as both certificate holder and additional insured as it pertains to company operations while in Miami-Dade County.

General liability or vehicle liability per occurrence of minimum $100,000/$300,000 total liability and $50,000 property damage.

Vehicles in the permitted company's fleet coming onto the Port are also required to have a PortMiami-issued Ground Transportation System (GTS) Go-Pass transponder. The GTS Go-Pass gives drivers the ability to drive through entry points without having to stop or slow down to pay fees.

GTS Go-Pass users must ensure their transponders are working properly. If your GTS Go-Pass transponder does not work, there are two possible causes:

Vehicles using the transponder decal that already have a Sunpass transponder in the recommended area of your windshield (upper center) are to place the GTS Go-Pass four inches to the right or left of the Sunpass transponder.
